Description
A dreamy collection of poems to read before you turn off the light, or to guide you gently back to sleep when you wake in the small hours.This soothing anthology contains 100 nighttime poems specially selected to calm the mind, introduce positive thoughts, lull us to sleep, and bring on sweet dreams. It contains not only poetry about the night itself, but also an array of restful, tranquil, meditative verse, along with classic lullabies from many cultures. There are also poems that reflect on the good things in life, encouraging gratitude for the day just gone and optimism for the day ahead.Within these pages readers can observe the night sky with Emily Brontë, visit the Lake Isle of Innisfree with W. B. Yeats, and experience Shakespeares most calming verses. Poems include the serene In the Evening by Nikki Giovanni, the upbeat Everything Is Going to Be Alright by Derek Mahon, the nursery classic My Bed is a Boat by Robert Louis Stevenson, and many more that are just perfect for the quiet hours of the night.
